Rekha's Notes
- Roast Your Tomatoes: If you have extra time, roast your cherry tomatoes with olive oil and garlic to add a smoky flavor.
- Perfectly Cooked Pasta: Cook your pasta al dente, so it doesn’t get mushy when tossed with the sauce.
- Add Some Heat: If you love spicy food, add some extra crushed red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to really amp up the heat.
- Balance the Flavors: If the sauce is too spicy, balance it with a little more cream or a touch of honey for sweetness.
